ABSTRACT
Blood specimens of 30 newly diagnosed diabetics and 50 normal subjects were analyzed for HbA[1C] and random sugar levels. The mean values of HbA[1C] and blood glucose were computed and coefficient of correlation [r] calculated. The value of r [+ 0.64] revealed a highly significant correlation between HbA[1C] and random blood sugar level [P < 0.01]. Thus HbA[1C] level is a useful indicator of the degree of hyperglycemia, which exists over a long period. Its measurement may serve as a screening test to identify those diabetics, who are in poor control. It is suggested that the determination of HbA[1C] can be considered as a good test for the diagnosis of diabetes mellitus and for the state of its control in diabetics in Pakistani environments
